I followed Mama to the basement. About halfway, we slowed down. I glanced at Mama. Her nose was heavily bleeding and she breathing really hard. 

"Mama okay?" I questioned. 

She looked at me and smiled, then wiped her nose.

 "Oh, yes. Its just been awhile since I used my powers this much." She replied. 

I reached into my bag and pulled out my water bottle, and held it out to Mama. She shook her head. 

"That's okay. You save your water." She said. 

I nod and we continued on our way. It was quiet for a long time.

 "Where... go?" I asked, breaking the silence. 

Mama looked at me quizzically. 

"You mean after we escape?" She asked. 

I nodded again. 

"Oh. Well, I was thinking we go to a little town somewhere far away. And live together peacefully and you could go to school. Life will be perfect" Mama said sighed. 

I smile. We reached the emergency escape door. 

"Ready?" I took a deep breath and nod.

 Together we reached for the leaver to open the door. We pressed down. And then an alarm went off. Lights everywhere were flashing red. 

"Crap!" Mama said. We heard footsteps rushing down the hallway. She pushed me through the door. "Go, go, go!" She whisper-yelled. 

We ran through a hallway. "Stop!" I heard voices yell.

 "Get back here!" An angry voice yelled, that made my blood run cold. It was Papa and I could tell he was furious. This only made me run faster. We ran down a flight of stairs and down another hall. I looked behind us. You could see the shadows of the men chasing us now. 

Mama looked at me. She took a deep breath. "I'll distract them. You keep running. Okay?" She tells me. 

I look at her frightened. "But.." 

"No buts." 

Tears start pooling in my eyes.

Mama smiles softly and puts her hand on my cheek. "Hey. I love you." She says. I put my hand on her hand and tears start dripping down from my eyes. 

"I love you too." I whispered. 

Tears slip down her cheek too. "Run." 

And I did. I didn't look back.

I was half way down the hall. There was bang. And then a scream. I looked back and saw Mama fall to the ground, holding her shoulder. The bad men approached her. I froze. My blood boiled. The bad men grabbed Mamas arm. She tried to push them away. "No!" She screamed. The bad men slapped her across the face. 

Before I knew what I was even doing, I begun charging towards the men, my hand extended. "NO!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. The men flew up into the air, and I flung then onto the wall as hard as possible. I put my hand down and let the bad men fall to the ground. They lay there, motionless. I ran over to Mama. I shook her gently. 

"Mama." I whispered. 

"Hi." She whispered hoarsely. 

"Mama. Up." I said, trying to help her up. 

She shook her head. "I can't." She told me softly. 

"Yes. Yes." I insisted while nodding, tears threatening to start falling again. 

She shook her head again. "Baby, I need you to listen to me. Your going to have to go on this journey alone. Okay?" 

Tears started spilling out of my eyes. I shook my head. "No." I whispered. 

"Yes. But before you go, there's something important you need to know." 

I shook my head. "Come. Please." I begged, sobbing.

"Shhh. Mama will be alright. Here..." She sat up, and pulled off her jacket and handed it to me, as well as her bag. "You'll want these." 

"Mama... Please." I sobbed. 

She grabbed my hand. "Its okay. I love you." 

"I love you too." 

"Can I tell you something Twelve?" 

I nod. 

"Eleven is-" 

A gun fired. Mama stopped talking and fell to the ground. 

My skin grew pale. "Mama...?" I whispered, my eyes wide in shock. 

"That's unfortunate, isn't it Twelve?" A voice asked. 

 I slowly looked up. Papa was standing at the corner of the hall, holding a small, black object. The anger I felt was unlike anything I had ever felt before. 

"You... Killed Mama." I whispered. 

"Mama? So she told you her little secret, did she? She thought I never knew. It took me awhile, but I found out. I was waiting for the perfect time to kill her." 

"YOU KILLED MAMA." I screamed. 

Cracks started forming in the walls and floor. 

"Twelve-" Papa started. 

His sentence was cut off by my scream. I raised my hand and used my powers to lift him off the ground. I begun to strangle him with my mind. 

"Twel-" Papa choked out. His face begun turning purple. The dim lights were flickering wildly. He nearly dead. I was just about to end him, but something stopped me. More tears slipped down my face. I lowered him to the ground and dropped him. The cracks that were on the walls and floors started opening more. I started to run away. I stopped at Mama's body. 

I bent down and kissed her cheek. 

"I love you." I whispered to the lifeless body.

Then I ran.
